All right, this episode of How Long Gone is brought to you by Stateside with Kai and Carter, a new podcast from The Guardian. And they are using this podcast to slow down the news and wrestle with the questions that we all have about what's happening in the world. And they do it three times a week, Jason. Does that sound familiar to you? We don't really talk about, you know, a lot of international global news items and climates and cultures and sports and things like that we do talk about fashion and

wellness but for everything else kai and carter are a great place all right so who couldn't

use more news listen wherever you get your podcast or watch on youtube How long gone, Chris Black coming to you from beautiful sunny Los Angeles it's the I mean it's bright today

Jason we won it's it's up before noon that feels it feels like a blessing for both of us

it really boosts my my overall happiness level for the day when it's when you wake up

and a little sun coming through hit that hit that side light hit the light from the side as well as from the bike.

It really helps with that, you know, my rhythms.

Yeah, I know how you do it.

I mean, we're getting breaking news.

Carlos Akras withdrawn from Wimbledon, his wrist injury.

Do you think, Jason, this wrist injury was from popping his little booty on the cover of Vanity Fair or from playing tennis?

Can we be sure that it happened on the court?

Who were we just talking? Oh, we were just talking to Rostom.

He was talking about prioritizing his wrist strength from the pull-up bar because of his cello playing and his oboe work.

Of course.

You know, so, I mean, we read the note that Al-Carras wrote to Sinner, which was very

bizarre and he should...

One of the most...

He should pull out from tennis in, you know, just period.

I think he wants to pull out. He's getting pegged like Playboy Cardi is what it sounds like to me.

I mean, I was just like this is at once cucked but also homoerotic but also ESL.

It had so many cool elements to it that it was fun to read because every word was just going to be a surprise.
